@Barry_Dooney @ballsdotie I'm getting on now, probably too long ago for the twitterati, but Paddy Quirke is the stand out foe Carlow in my time and the late great Ned Doogue before my time.

We're putting together a list of all 32 counties, so we want to know: who is the greatest ever footballer from your county? 🏐

@TProfiler_ @htomufc You are 💯 extracting the urine with Rodgers

A lot is made about managers being ‘stubborn’ so I think it’s only fair people give Arne Slot immense praise for adapting massively and platforming his players to the best of his ability. His use of Salah off the ball/rest attack, the use of TAA being situational whether he’s inside, wide, in the middle, the way he’s profiled Gravenberch as the #6 and even the way he’s using Szoboszlai recently on the last line. Seriously impressive adaptations.

@CarlowSoccer @kclr96fm @scorelinesport @harrysarticles @Natsport The 2 biggest and best run sections of the soccer pyramid in Ireland and with by far the biggest playing numbers are Schoolboys football and Junior Football, the vast majority of which is played Sept-May. Why try to get the majority to change to suit a poorly run minority

@Mick_O_Keeffe There is very little if any far right support in Ireland. There is however about 50% of the population with centre right thinking. The problem is the traditional centre right parties, FFG,have both gone to the left and this 50% have no party that aligns with their views.

@burrincelticfc1 Well deserved, welcome back 👍

A big congratulations to the management Tom, Craig, Timmy and all the players who were involved throughout the season. It’s the first time the club have won division one in 16 years and 13 years since the club have last played premier football. 🟢⚪️🏆⚽️

🟢⚪️🏆23/24 Tullys Travel Division 1 Champions !!! 🟢⚪️🏆 A 5-0 win tonight against Slaney sealed the league title and secured our mens team back to back promotions into the premier division. Goals coming from Shane Duffy x3 , Myles Hutton and Adam Deacon on the night.

We wish to extend our gratitude to Maria Steen for her monumental role in eloquently destroying the corrupt political establishment on behalf of the Irish people.

@jk_rowling "The emperor is naked. He might be wearing lipstick, but his balls are swinging in plain sight." Brilliant

The word ‘transphobic’, as used here, does not mean an irrational fear or dislike of trans people. It means refusing to use gender identity ideology’s jargon, refusing to parrot its slogans, refusing to accept that sex doesn't matter when it comes to sport and single-sex spaces, refusing to believe a bearded heterosexual man becomes a lesbian when he declares himself one, and refusing to believe an abusive, misogynistic male is a woman because he likes to wear mini-dresses and pout in selfies. Like every other gender critical person I know, I believe everyone should be free to express themselves however they wish, dress however they please, call themselves whatever they want, sleep with any consenting adult who wishes to sleep with them, and that trans-identified people should have the same protections regarding employment, housing, freedom of speech and personal safety every other citizen is entitled to. But this isn’t nearly enough for the dominant strain of trans activism, which asserts that unless freedom of speech is removed from dissenters, unless trans-identified men are permitted to strip away women’s rights, with particular reference to single sex spaces like rape crisis centres, prison cells, hospital wards, changing rooms and public bathrooms, until we all bow down to their neo-religion, accept their pseudo-scientific claims and embrace their circular reasoning, trans people are more oppressed, and more at risk, than any other group in society. This is nonsense. 99.9% of the world knows it's nonsense. The emperor is naked. He might be wearing lipstick, but his balls are swinging in plain sight.

@griptmedia Progress to what, exactly????

A ‘Yes’ vote in the upcoming referendums will “keep Ireland on a pathway of liberalism,” Taoiseach Leo Varadkar has said, warning that if the referendum fails, it will be “seized on as a victory by those who want to slow or stall our progress.” gript.ie/taoiseach-yes-…

@IrishTimes They would be better served trying to clean up the mess (that they have made)that is the inner city,from open drug use,homeless sleeping in tents,beggers on every street corner not to mention the anti social behaviour .Business is dying,he wants to kill it off.

@NewsMurray Ireland's opt out was secured in The Amsterdam treaty of 1997. The second Lisbon vote in 2009 doubled down on that ( 1st Lisbon vote would have taken it away).State can't opt in without a referendum because any constitution change requires one. MAKE IT MAKE SENSE 🤷

@Independent_ie Spineless!!!

@RTEUpfront We've all got opinions but mine is that all primary schools should be Gealscoileanna and, at secondary level leave the choice with the students. The biggest problem I see with it is not the language it's how it's thought in our schools.

“Why should I be forced to sit in an Irish class I don’t enjoy?” The #RTEUpfront audience have their say on whether Irish should be compulsory in schools.

@Carlow_GAA @Eireogcarlow Well done Cillian 👏

🏆 Congratulations to @Eireogcarlow on winning the U20 A Championship Final this evening. Captain Cillian McGrath was presented with the cup by proud Éire Óg man and Carlow GAA Assistant Secretary, John Brophy. 🇦🇹🏐🇦🇹

@pgahern @Carlow_GAA @AscaJuve Well done John, won't be long before the hurlers come looking for you aswel 👍

John Phiri made his intercounty senior debut for the Carlow footballers tonight in NCP against Kildare. John is pictured with his very proud Asca stalwart Vincent O'Brien after the match. Well done John and very best wishes in your career! @Carlow_GAA @AscaJuve

@griptmedia Genuine question, when did Ireland's 2 centre right parties ( FFFG) go so far left that they passed SF on the way?

JOHN MCGUIRK: The Minister appears to have inadvertently confirmed that social media companies are being pressured - outside of official channels - to remove content the state doesn't like. Why the public needs answers on the McEntee/Musk row: #premium gript.ie/why-the-public…

@haksabanoviccsc @ChuckAmach @KevDoyle_Indo It was written after ( and about ) the IRA bombing of the Gas Works, Warrington in 1993.

@ChuckAmach @KevDoyle_Indo I don’t think that’s what the song is on about mate

The antidote to The Wolfe Tones’s ‘Ra’ songs? The Cranberries’s ‘Zombie’ becoming the unofficial Irish sporting anthem.

@1stAlbino @Reunify32 Má tá teanga dhúchais ár dtíre ina chúis eagla is dócha go gciallaíonn sé go bhfuil tú sa tír mícheart I'll make it a little easier for ya 👇👇👇👇👇👇 If the native language of our country is causing fear it probably means your in the wrong country

The GAA & the Irish language taking back the north of Ireland. THIS iS CULTURE 🇮🇪

@CarlowWeather Loud rolling thunder, no lightning, no rain 🤷‍♂️

Thunderstorm has moved into Laois and Carlow now. Heavy rain persists in Northern areas.

Thunderstorm now between Kilkenny and Tipperary

@elonmusk you are a 1st class wanker. Period.
